`
`THE FIRST WA VE CAMERA MANUFACTURERS' FINAL INV ALIDJTY
`CONTENTIONS {CORRECTED)
`
`Pursuant to this Court's Sixth Practice and Procedure Order: Regarding Scheduling
`
`("Procedure Order"), dated September 2, 2010 (Dkt. No. 372), defendants Fujifilm Corporation;
`
`Fujifilm U.S.A., Inc.; Fujifilm Japan; Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd: Victor Company
`
`of Japan, Ltd.; Panasonic Corporation of North America; JVC Company of America; Olympus
`
`Corporation; Olympus Imaging America Inc: Samsung Techwin Co.; Samsung Opto-Electronics
`
`America, Inc.; Nikon Corporation· and Nikon, lnc. (collectively, the "First Wave Camera
`
`Manufacturers", or "Camera Manufacturers") submit the following Final Invalidity Contentions
`
`("Invalidity Contentions") in response to the Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG's Asserted
`
`Claims and Infringement Contentions ("Infringement Contentions") submitted by plaintiff Papst
`
`Licensing GmbH & Co. KG ("Papst") on October 13, 2010 (Dkt. No. 379).
`
`The Camera Manufacturers have served these corrected invalidity contentions in response
`
`to Papst's complaints that Pap t did not completely understand the originally filed First Wave
`
`Camera Manufacturers ' Final Invalidity Contention (Dkt. No. 395) ("Final Invalidity
`
`Contentions"). The Camera Manufacturers believe that the Final Invalidity Contentions do
`
`provide sufficient detail and are compl.iant with the Court's Procedure Order, but now serve
`
`these corrected invalidi.ty contentions pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(e) to eliminate certain

`
`

`

`Case 1 :07 -mc-00493-RMC Document 414-2 Filed 01 /20/11 Page 3 of 202
`
`typographical errors and to resolve certain issues raised by Papst. The Camera Manufacturers
`
`have provided Papst with these corrected invalidity contentions pursuant to a:n agreement
`
`reached between counsel of all parties.'
`
`PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS
`
`The Camera Manufacturers base these [nvalidity Contentions on their current knowledge,
`
`understanding, and belief as to the facts and information available as of the date of these
`
`contentions. As explained in The Camera Manufacturers' Motion for Sanctions Pursuant to Fed.
`
`R. Civ. P. J6(t) and 37(b) (Dkt. No. 388), Papst's Infringement Contentions, including Papst's
`
`proposed constructions of claim language, are unintelligible, overly expansive and ignore the
`
`Court's claim constructions2 pursuant to the Modified Order Regarding Claims Construction,
`
`dated November 24, 2009 (Dkt. No. 337) and the associated Memorandum (Dkt. No. 336).
`
`Papst's Inrringement Contentions (which are, at least in part and by Papst's own
`
`admission, based on claim constructions that are inconsistent with the Court's claim
`
`constructions) do not provide the Camera Manufacturers with sufficient infom1ation to
`
`understand the bases for Papst's infringement allegations under the Court's constructions, and
`
`thereby pem1it the Camera Manufacturers to identify all of the prior art that might be
`
`invalidating. This is the subject of the Camera Manufacturers' Motion for Sanctions that is
`
`pending decision by the Court. The Camera Manufacturers have based the e Invalidity
`
`Contentions on the Cou1t' construction of claim terms in addressing relevant prior art -
`
`however, with regard to certain terms that Papst has indicated it will continue to construe
`
`contrary to the Court's construction, the Camera Manufacturers have additionally identified and
`
`charted prior art that would be pertinent under Papst's improper constructions.
`
`1 Pursuant to a telephone call between the Camera Manufacturers aud Papst on December 16, 2010, and continued
`in a letter from Jerold Schnayer to Steven Routh on December J 7, 20] 0.
`
`2 See, e.g., Papst's Infringement Contentions (Diet. No. 379), ("Papst maintains its position ... ", "Papst objects to ... ")
`pp.6 17 19 20, 21 , 36,40 41 42, 46, 47 48 50 71 , 75, 77.

`
`Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG - Exhibit 2008, p. 4
`
`

`

`Case 1 :07-mc-00493-RMC Document 414-2 Filed O 1 /20/11 Page 4 of 202
`
`In particular, Papst's Infringement Contentions ignore or distort the Court's constructions
`
`of the claim limitations "interface device" (which, properly construed, must be "stand-alone")
`
`and "second connecting device" (which, properly construed, must pem1it a user "readily to attach
`
`and detach" the interface device with a plurality of dissimilar data transmit/receive devices).
`
`Accordingly, if Papst prevails on its distorted view of the proper constructions of those claim
`
`limitations, then the Camera Manufacturers offer the cited references as showing that the prior
`
`art contained those limitations. Additionally, aside and apart from those two limitations, the
`
`cited references show that the other limitations of the asserted claims were present in the prior art
`
`to support invalidating obviousness contentions and combinations under 35 U.S.C. § 103.
`
`To the extent Papst's Infringement Contentions are understandable, certain of these
`
`Invalidity Contentions are based on Papst's constructions regarding claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 14
`
`and 15 ofU.S. Patent No. 6,470,399 ("the '399 Patent"), claims l, 2, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17
`
`and 18 of U.S. Patent No. 6,895,449 ("the '449 Patent"), and Papst's application of those
`
`constructions to the accused products. Papst did not provide any contentions suggesting that the
`
`Camera Manufacturers infringe other claims of these patents or any other patent. Consequently,
`
`in reliance thereon, the Camera Manufacturers have not separately addressed the other claims in
`
`the '399 and ' 449 Patents (the "Patents-in-Suit" or "Asserted Patents").
`
`In addition, the Camera Manufacturers have not received all of the documents that may
`
`be relevant to their Invalidity Contentions. Further relevant material may be revealed during
`
`discovery. The Camera Manufacturers also have not had the opportunity to complete the
`
`deposition of the named inventor of the '399 and ' 449 Patents and/or other persons having
`
`potentially relevant information.
`
`Further, the Camera Manufacturers have had little or no discovery concerning the alleged
`
`conception and reduction to practice by the named inventor of the subject matter of the asserted
`
`patents. Accordingly, the Camera Manufacturers do not presently have a basis for assessing the
`
`date(s) to which Papst might be entitled as an earliest conception date or the named inventor's
`
`diligence, if any, through reduction to practice. The Camera Manufacturers may seek documents
`
`3
`
`Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG - Exhibit 2008, p. 5
`
`

`

`Case 1 :07-mc-00493-RMC Document 414-2 Filed O 1 /20/11 Page 5 of 202
`
`from third parties in discovery that establish earlier dates of conception and reduction to practice,
`
`as appropriate, in order to demonstrate such third parties' earlier dates of invention under 35
`
`U.S.C. § 102(g). Moreover, Papst's Infringement Contentions do not identify the priority date to
`
`which each asserted claim allegedly is entitled as required by the Procedure Order. Lacking any
`
`such identification (or analysis showing the '399 and ' 449 Patents are entitled to any earlier
`
`priority date), the Camera Manufacturers presume, for purposes of invalidity, that the respective
`
`U.S. application filing dates serve as the relevant dates.
`
`In the claim charts accompanying these Invalidity Contentions, the Camera
`
`Manufacturers identify specific portions of prior art references that disclose the elements of the
`
`asserted claims. Although the Camera Manufacturers have attempted to identify at least one
`
`citation per element for each reference, each and every disclosure of the same element in the
`
`reference is not necessarily identified. The lack of a citation for an element should not be deemed
`
`an admission that the element is not disclosed or is not inherent in the reference. In an effort to
`
`focus the issues, the Camera Manufacturers identify only exemplary portions of cited references.
`
`It should be recognized that persons of ordinary skill in the art generally read a prior art
`
`reference as a whole and in the context of other publications and literature. To understand and
`
`interpret any specific statement or disclosure within a prior art reference, such persons would
`
`rely on other information within the reference, along with other publications and their general
`
`scientific or engineering knowledge.
`
`The Camera Manufacturers consequently may rely upon other portions of the prior art
`
`references and on other publications and expert testimony to provide context, as aids to
`
`understanding and interpreting the portions that are identified, or to establish that a person of
`
`ordinary skill in the art would have been motivated to modify or combine certain of the cited
`
`references so as to render the claims obvious.
`
`Certain limitations in the asserted claims may be disclosed in the prior art by the
`
`disclosure of certain characteristics. By way of example only, a disclosure of interface
`
`communication using only standard protocols ( e.g., the SCSI protocol) may also constitute a
`
`4
`
`Papst Licensing GmbH & Co. KG - Exhibit 2008, p. 6
`
`

`

`Case 1 :07-mc-00493-RMC Document 414-2 Filed O 1 /20/11 Page 6 of 202
`
`disclosure of using only the standard communication drivers for that protocol. Nothing contained
`
`in these Invalidity Contentions or any accompanying exhibits or claim charts should be
`
`understood or deemed to be an express or implied admission or contention with respect to any
`
`correlation between the limitations of the asserted claims and other characteristics of the subject
`
`matter in the prior art references.
`
`Where the Camera Manufacturers identify a particular figure in a prior art reference, the
`
`identification should be understood to encompass the caption and description of the figure and
`
`any text relating to the figure in addition to the figure itself. Similarly, where an identified
`
`portion of text refers to a figure, the identification should be understood to include the figure.
`
`IDENTIFICATION OF EACH ITEM OF PRIOR ART
`
`The Court's Procedure Order (p. 3, 3(a)) requires the Camera Manufacturers to identify
`
`each item of prior art that allegedly anticipates each asserted claim or renders it obvious.
`
`Below are tables identifying the individual items of prior art that the Camera
`
`Manufacturers assert anticipate and/or render obvious each of the asserted claims of the '399 and
`
`'449 Patents providing the information requested by the Court's Procedure Order. For the sake of
`
`convenience, each prior art reference has been provided a unique identifier beginning with the
`
`letter "A", which may be subsequently utilized as shorthand for a particular reference as well as
`
`the Exhibit number for the associated claim chart.
`
`The prior art is identified in separate tables below according to the type of prior art:
`
`• Table I: United States Patent Prior Art;
`
`• Table II: Foreign Patent Prior Art;
`
`• Table III: Non-Patent References; and
`
`• Table IV: Prior Art Products.

`
`JV and Ex. 'A.' In addition, for the Nikon ElOO Coo!Pix Camera, invoices, including
`
`infom1ation regarding purchasers and shipping dates have been produced to Papst. See NIKON(cid:173)

`
`use dates for the prior art products will be sought by the Camera Manufacturers during
`
`discovery, as outlined in the discovery plan for invalidity to be filed by the Camera
`
`Manufacturers in accordance with the Court's Sixth Practice and Procedure Order.
`
`Concurrent with the service of these Invalidity Contentions, the Camera Manufactur rs
`
`coll ctively will produce to Papst all of the items of p1ior art identified above to the extent not
`
`previously produced. To the extent any such item is not in English, the Camera Manufacturers
`
`will produce a certified English translation of the portion(s) relied upon.
`
`IDENTIFICATION OF EACH ITEM OF PRIOR ART
`
`The Court's Procedure Order (p. 3, 3(b)) requires the Camera Manufacturers to indicate
`
`whether each item of prior art anticipates each asserted claim or renders the asserted claim
`
`obvious, and to explain why the prior art renders the asserted claim obvious, including an
`
`identification of any combinations of prior art showing obviousness.
`
`The Summary Invalidity Chart below indicates those references that anticipate various
`
`claims of the Patents-in-Suit under 35 U.S .C. § I 02, and also indicates multiple combinations of
`
`references (obviousness grouping charts Bn) that render various claim of the Patents-in-Suit
`
`obvious under 35 U.S.C. § 103. The Camera Manufacturers have provided individual references
`
`and combinations of references as described below. However, the identification of any particular
`
`combination does not preclude the applicability of other reference and combinations.
